Definitions

  • the present invention relates to novel tricyclic phosphodiesterase type 4 (PDE4) inhibitors, and analogs, tautomers, enantiomers, diasteromers, regioisomers, stereoisomers, polymorphs, pharmaceutically acceptable salts, appropriate N-oxides, and pharmaceutically acceptable solvates thereof, pharmaceutical compositions containing them, and their use for treating conditions mediated by PDE-IV inhibition, such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • PDE4 tricyclic phosphodiesterase type 4
  • Airway inflammation characterizes a number of severe lung diseases including asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
  • COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • Events leading to airway obstruction include edema of airway walls, infiltration of inflammatory cells into the lung, production of various inflammatory mediators and increased mucous production.
  • the airways of asthmatic patients are infiltrated by inflammatory leukocytes, of which eosinophils are the most prominent component. The magnitude of asthmatic reactions is correlated with the number of eosinophils present in the lungs.
  • eosinophils The accumulation of eosinophils is found dramatically in the lungs of asthmatic patients although there are very few in the lungs of a normal individual. They are capable of lysing and activating cells and destroying tissues. When activated, they synthesize and release inflammatory cytokines such as IL-I, IL-3, and TNF- ⁇ and inflammatory mediators such as PAF, LTD4 and related oxygen species that can produce edema and broncho-constriction.
  • Tumor necrosis factor (TNF- ⁇ ) is also known to be involved in the pathogenesis of a number of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. Consequently, manipulation of the cytokine signaling or biosynthetic pathways associated with these proteins may provide therapeutic benefit in those disease states.
  • TNF- ⁇ production in proinflammatory cells becomes attenuated by an elevation of intracellular cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP).
  • cAMP cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate
  • PDE phosphodiesterase family of enzymes.
  • the phosphodiesterase enzymes play an integral role in cell signaling mechanisms by hydrolyzing cAMP and cGP to their inactive 5' forms. Inhibition of PDE enzymes thus results in an elevation of cAMP and/or cGP levels and alters intracellular responses to extra cellular signals by affecting the processes mediated by cyclic nucleotides.
  • PDEs The mammalian cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases (PDEs) are classified into ten families on the basis of their amino acid sequences and/or DNA sequence, substrate specificity and sensitivity to pharmacological agents [Soderling, S.H., Bayuga, SJ., and Beavo, J.A., Proc. Natl. Acad. ScL, USA, 96,7071-7076 (1999); Fujishige, K, Kotera, J., Michibata, H., Yuasa, K., Takebayashi, Si, Okamura, K. and Omori, K., J. Biol. Chem., 274, 18438-18445 (1999)]. Many cell types express more than one PDE and distribution of isoenzymes between the cells varies markedly. Therefore development of highly isoenzyme selective PDE inhibitors provides a unique opportunity for selective manipulation of various pathophysiological processes.
  • Phosphodiesterase type 4 is an enzyme which regulates activities in cells which lead to inflammation in the lungs.
  • PDE4 a cAMP-specific and Ca +2 - independent enzyme, is a key isozyme in the hydrolysis of cAMP in mast cells, basophils, eosinophils, monocytes and lymphocytes.
  • the association between cAMP elevation in inflammatory cells with airway smooth muscle relaxation and inhibition of mediator release has led to widespread interest in the design of PDE4 inhibitors [Trophy,T.J., Am. J. Respir. Crit. Care Med., 157, 351-370 (1998)].
  • TNF- ⁇ Excessive or unregulated TNF- ⁇ production has been implicated in mediating or exacerbating a number of undesirable physiological conditions such as osteoarthritis and other arthritic conditions, septic shock, endotoxic shock, respiratory distress syndrome and bone resorption diseases. Since TNF- ⁇ also participates in the onset and progress of autoimmune diseases, PDE4 inhibitors may find utility as therapeutic agents for rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and Crohn's disease. [Nature Medicine, I, 21 1- 214 (1995) and ibid., 244-248].
  • PDE4 family has grown to include four subtypes - PDE4A to PDE4D, each encoded by a distinct gene (British Journal of Pharmacology; 1999; v.128; p.1393-1398).
  • PDE-4 There exist two binding sites on mammalian PDE-4 at which inhibitor molecules may bind. Also PDE-4 exists in two distinct forms which represent different conformations. They are designated as High affinity Rolipram binding site PDE-4H and Low affinity Rolipram binding site PDE-4L [Jacobitz, S., McLaughlin, M.M., Livi, G.P., Burman, M., Trophy, T. J., MoI. Pharmaco., 50, 891-899 (1996)]. It was shown that certain side effects (vomiting and gastric acid secretion) are associated with inhibition of PDE-4H whereas some beneficial actions are associated with PDE-4L inhibition.
